The relation among mechanical properties, phase ratios, micro-structures and grain sizes is investigated on the wire materials of low carbon steels and extra low carbon steels. Also the Electron Microscope and Energy Spectrum analysis are applied to distinguish the type of Precipitation phase. The results are shown that the precipitation phase of titanium nitrides and titanium carbides exist in the extra low carbon steel so that the hardness ratio of the wire materials with extra low carbons after cold forming is higher than that of the wire materials with low carbons for around 10%. In addition, The wire rod materials with course ferrite grains mainly added by titanium elements in extra low carbon steels could be made as the wire materials for cold processing and it still kept good ductility not necessary to be softened under heat treatment. So in the research of function comparisons, to save cost expenses through cold forming without annealing process is expected. Keywords: Extra low carbon steel, Phase ratio, Grain size, Precipitation phase.
